A shuttlecraft is initially moving at 96.0 m/s as it travels in deep space. The mass of the shuttle given its current fuel level is approximately 6.41 ✕ 106 kg. When the shuttle fires its rockets to move faster, the speed of the exhaust leaving the rockets is 2900 m/s. What is the mass of the fuel necessary to get the shuttlecraft up to a final speed of 130 m/s? A shuttlecraft is initially moving at 96.0 m/s as...
Problem 12:A cart is moving horizontally along a straight line with constant speed 30 m/s. A projectile is to be fired from the moving cart in such a way that it will return to the cart after the cart has moved 80m. At what speed (relative to the cart) and at what angle (to the horizontal) must the projectile be fired?NOTE: remember that to calculate the speed of the projectile respect to the cart, we need to subtract the velocity...
A 2690 kg unmanned space probe is moving in a straight line at a constant speed of 198 m/s. Control rockets on the space probe execute a burn in which a thrust of 4520 N acts for 62.5 s. (a) What is the change in the magnitude of the probe's linear momentum if the thrust is directed in the forward direction, so as to slow the probe? (b) What is the change in kinetic energy under the same condition? Assume...

4. A particle is moving along a straight line such that its velocity is defined as v -5s2 m/s, where s is in meters. If s 2 m when t0, determine the particle's velocity and acceleration as functions of time.
The velocity in mm/s of an object moving on a straight line is 200 multiplied by s (s given in mm). If the starting point at time zero is s = 0.5m, what is its acceleration when s = 2m and the time required to reach this position. 4. The velocity in mm/s of an object moving on a straight line is 200 multiplied by s (s given in mm). If the starting point at time zero is s time...
The velocity of a particle moving in a straight line is decreasing at the rate of 3 m/s per meter of displacement at an instant when the velocity is 10 m/s. Determine the acceleration a of the particle at this instant.
